Hayze gritted his teeth as he watched his throwing knife deflect off the man’s staff. He would leave the knife where it landed for now.
”Find that damn piece of paper so we can get out of here.” He said to his shadow.
Without responding, his shadow broke away from him and began zipping around the room. At first it seemed to be searching frantically, but Hayze realized it was trying to cause a distraction. The shadow then moved directly under the man threatening them, gleaning anything it could, before making a more thorough search behind the counter.
Meanwhile, Hayze began moving sideways, using any success the shadow had in distracting the man with the staff, to position himself in a line with three objects. At one end of the line was himself. In the middle was Mr. Uniform. And at the other end... his throwing knife.
